Please have a go at it in a test page. The main principle we need is
that the thing must be as easy as possible to edit. (FWIW if you can
come up with a better markup than what we currently use, we'd welcome
the advise.)

Well, I pushed some authors via private email. Others did not seem to
need any pushing :-)

Right, that's the way I use them too. Sorry we don't have anything
better :-( The archives are refreshed every 10 minutes, so it's not
like you need to wait for a week, either.
Of course, I've configured my email client so that Message-Ids are shown
all over the place, so I don't have to mess around clicking stuff.
